Celebrity Body Parts That Are Worth Millions of Dollars

We admire celebrities not only for their talent but also their physical appearance. Their looks greatly affect their ability to get work. The stakes are high if a celebrity loses or injures a body part they rely on for income. This is why many stars take out expensive insurance policies on their body parts. You’d be surprised to learn how much some of their parts are worth.

Here are celebrity body parts that are worth millions or close to it.

Insured body parts: legs

Cost: $2 million

In 2004, supermodel Heidi Klum insured her legs for $2 million. Although both of her legs look perfect, she has a slight imperfection. According to Vogue, Klum told Showbiz Spy her left leg is worth less than her right leg because it has a scar caused by an accident during which she fell on glass.

“Basically, I was in London, and I had to go to this place where they check out your legs. They would look at them and I had one scar here from when I fell on a glass, so this [left leg] isn’t as pricey and this [right] one,” she told the publication.
